Introduction
Manual Purpose
This manual describes the operation and maintenance of your TSI Series
CA-6000 CA-CALCTM Single Gas Monitor.
Using This Manual
Before using the CA-CALC Single Gas Monitor for the first time, review this
manual in its entirety.
Most information in this manual is applicable for all Series CA-6000
instruments. Where information is not applicable to a particular model or
additional information is supplied, notation is made.
Warnings and Cautions
The manual assumes that you have a basic understanding of combustion
safety concerns and are thoroughly familiar with the fuel burning equipment
being tested. If you are using measurements as the basis for equipment
adjustments, rely on your good judgment and experience together with the
measured data. This is especially important where safety issues are of
concern. Equipment adjustments must always coincide with the fuel burning
equipment manufacturer’s recommendations.
!
!
WARNING
High temperatures and toxic gases are produced when
fossil fuels are burned. Only qualified individuals,
thoroughly familiar with operating and adjusting fuelburning equipment, should use gas measurements for
the purpose of making equipment adjustments.
WARNING
The CA-CALC is not intended for use as a continuous
monitor.

Chapter 1
Instrument Description
The CA-CALCTM 6000 Series Single Gas Monitors are portable instruments
designed for measuring key gases associated with the combustion of fossil
fuels. The CA-CALC Single Gas Monitor is typically used to evaluate the
performance of boilers, furnaces, and hot water tanks, and determine the
presence of toxic pollutants for regulatory and safety concerns.
All instruments use electrochemical gas sensors, which for most models
provide two or three years of useful service before sensor replacement is
necessary. Sensor replacement is easily performed by the operator.
The CA-CALC 6000 Series Analyzers are supplied with a sampling probe
consisting of a stainless sample tube, plastic handle, rubber or non-reactive
plastic sample line (for NO2, SO2), and in-line water-stop filter. The
sampling probe is used to draw the gas sample at a rate of 0.8 liters per
minute from the sampling point to the sensor in the instrument. The sample
flow is provided by an internal diaphragm vacuum pump.
The following CA-CALC models are available:

Chapter 3
The Gas Sensors
Your CA-CALC analyzer uses electrochemical gas sensors for making gas
measurements. Electrochemical sensors operate by oxidizing or reducing
molecules of the measured gas contacting the sensor’s sensing electrode.
A sensor current develops which is proportional to the reaction rate. The
current is detected by the CA-CALC electronics and converted to a gas
concentration reading proportional to the current. Gas concentration is
displayed in units of PPM or standard mg/m3, or for oxygen (O2),
displayed as a percent.
The Sampling Probe
The sampling probe consists of a stainless steel probe tip, plastic handle,
sampling tube and water-stop filter. Instrument Models CA-6040 and
CA-6050 for measuring NO2 and SO2, respectively, use a polypropylene
sample tube, which is non-reactive to these gases. Sampling probe types
are shown in Figure 2.
Diaphragm Pump
The CA-CALC analyzer samples exhaust gases from the flue and delivers
them to the electrochemical sensors using a diaphragm sampling pump.
The pump is accessed through the sensor cover (see Figure 1), and can be
removed for cleaning or for replacement. Typical pump life is 1000
hours.
Water-Stop Filter
Your sample probe is provided with a small, water-impermeable
hydrophobic filter. This filter protects the pump and gas sensor from
water (and soot), which can adversely affect instrument performance.
When water is present, the filter plugs, causing the instrument flow to
cease. Where water or contamination are present (flue measurements), it
is recommended that you purchase a Model 802215 Water Trap. This
item is described below.
Optional Model 802215 Water Trap
The Model 802215 Water Trap, shown in Figure 2, is used to remove
moisture that collects in the sample tubing when combustion gases are
sampled from the flue. The water trap uses two chambers and a filter to
maximize water and particulate removal. Unlike the water-stop filter
provided standard, the Water Trap enables extended sampling from a
moist, dirty air stream.

Optional Protective Boot Model 801995
An optional protective boot is available for your instrument. The
boot provides drop protection for the instrument and is supplied
with a magnet, enabling the instrument to be mounted on a flat,
vertical metal surface. The boot is equipped with a carrying strap.

Getting Started
Installing Batteries
The CA-CALCTM portable Single Gas Monitor operates using 4 AA batteries
enabling the instrument to operate for approximately 10 hours with the pump
running.
To install the batteries turn the Single Gas Monitor over and remove the
battery cover by pushing down on the cover latch tab with your thumb and
sliding back, away from the instrument case. Turn the instrument over and
shake, allowing the battery holder and batteries to fall out into your hand.
Note the orientation of the contacts on the holder and in the instrument.
Replace the used batteries with new batteries, matching the + and –
terminals, as indicated on the battery holder. Note the location of the battery
contacts. Replace the holder by inserting it straight down into the battery
compartment
Assembling the Sampling Probe
Refer to the photographs in Figure 2. Your probe comes assembled as
shown. Should the water-stop filter become separated, reconnect it by
attaching the short black rubber tube (1/8” ID) to the smooth “Lure” fitting.
Connect the larger black rubber tube (3/16” ID) to the barbed tube fitting
attached to the water-stop filter. Where the transparent polypropylene
tubing is supplied (probes for NO2 and SO2), reconnect the poly-tubing by
sliding it into the rubber tubing as shown in the photos.

Data Display, Viewing the Gas Measurement
Measurements and calculations are presented in the Data Display screen.
The Data Display appears once the Startup sequence is complete. Except
for the Model 6020 (O2), gas concentrations are presented in PPM (parts per
million) or mg/m3 (milligrams per cubic meter). Refer to the section below
for instructions on changing the units of measurement.
Changing the Gas Measurement Units (not CA-6020, 6070)
Units of gas concentration are changeable. Parts per million, PPM, or
milligrams per standard cubic meters, mg/m3 or percent (CA-6060) can be
presented on your instrument Data Display. Note: mg/m3 is referenced to 0
deg. C and 760 mm Hg.
To change units, press the ENTER button. Use the ARROW buttons to and
scroll to UNITS. Press ENTER. Select either PPM or mg/m3. Press
ENTER. The figure below outlines steps for changing units.
Figure 4. Choosing Display Units
Basic Operation
15
Making Gas Measurements
Your instrument is ergonomically designed to be held in the left hand. The
sampling probe is held in the right, or may be mounted. If you have the
protective boot option Model 801995, an attached magnet enables the
instrument to be mounted vertically to the metal side of your appliance, for
hands-free operation.
Measurement Interval
When making gas measurements, keep the measurements short.
Although the instrument is capable of measurements lasting many
minutes, the gas sensors are designed for discrete sampling applications.
When high gas concentrations are measured for extended periods,
chemical filters in the sensor are used up prematurely. The chemical
filters remove interfering gases that can cause false readings,
influencing the accuracy and lifetime of the sensor. In addition, soot
and moisture will plug the water-stop filter, reducing or stopping the gas
flow.
Note: To reduce sensor exposure to gas and to reduce build up of water
vapor in the sampling lines and water trap, turn the pump off
when not making measurements.
Operating Temperature
Best results are obtained if the CA-CALC single gas monitor is allowed
to stabilize at the temperature of the test environment before using.
Plugged Water-Stop Filter
A significant change in the sound of the pump may indicate a plugged
water-stop filter. If plugging is suspected, refer to the appropriate
heading in the Maintenance section of this manual.
High Temperature Measurements
When sampling from high temperature, leave at least four inches
between the plastic handle of the probe and the outside edge of the flue.
The stainless-steel sampling probe is a poor heat conductor, and
following the four-inch rule above, temperatures as high as 700 degrees
centigrade (1290ºF) can be measured without damaging the probe
handle.

Gas Sensor Calibrations
Calibration Equipment Setups
Gas sensors can be calibrated periodically to maintain the best accuracy.
Gas sensors do drift over time, depending upon the operating environment
and gas sensor’s exposure history.
With the proper equipment, such as that shown in Figures 5 and 6 below, it
is easy to calibrate your CA-CALC gas sensor. If you wish, you may also
return your instrument to TSI for a new factory calibration, or purchase a
new factory calibrated sensor.
The equipment needed to calibrate individual gas sensors can be purchased
from TSI as calibration kits, or you may elect to put together your own
calibration system. Model numbers for TSI sensor calibration kits are found
in Chapter 2, “Unpacking.” Two calibration setups are presented in
Figures 5 and 6. A brief discussion of these calibration setups is presented in
the following section.
Figure 5. Calibration with TSI Calibration Kit
17
A TSI supplied calibration kit (Figure 5) uses a Demand Flow regulator to
supply gas to the CA-CALC analyzer in response to the draw of the
instrument sampling the pump. If a conventional regulator and valve are
used (Figure 6), the setup supplies gas to the instrument using a tee to a vent
extra gas. This prevents a forced flow at the instrument inlet. The bead-type
flow meter depicted in the figure is used to verify there is extra flow (.5 to
2 LPM recommended). Extra flow is required to prevent room air from
being drawn in, diluting the sample.
Once you have the assembled the appropriate hardware described, follow the
steps in the next section to perform the gas sensor calibration.
Figure 6. Alternative Calibration Setup
18
Chapter 6
CAL MENU Option, Sensor Calibration
The CAL option is used for performing calibration of the gas sensor. A
schematic showing the button operations and screen displays for sensor
calibration is shown in Figure 7. The calibration procedures are also
described below.
1. To begin, press the ENTER button from the Data Display screen. The
CAL screen appears. CAL is one of three MENU options selectable
using the ARROW buttons (reference Figure 4).
2. Press the ENTER button when CAL is displayed. The word ZERO
indicates that the sensor voltage is first read, without calibration gas.
3. Unless calibrating an O2 sensor (Model 6120), disconnect the sampling
line so only room air is sampled. If you are calibrating an O2 sensor,
connect your N2 (nitrogen) calibration bottle to the sampling probe
(refer to Figures 5 or 6).
4. Press ENTER to start the ZERO calibration. Wait for the countdown to
finish.
5. When the zero calibration is complete, SPAN is indicated on the
display. SPAN indicates that the voltage will be measured in the
presence of your calibration gas. For O2, this means the surrounding
ambient air.
6. Connect your calibration gas to the sampling probe as shown in
Figures 5, and 6 described earlier. If calibrating an O2 sensor,
disconnect the N2 gas bottle.
7. Use the ARROW keys to adjust the SPAN value to match that of your
calibration gas. For O2 this is 20.9%, the ambient air concentration.
8. Press ENTER to start the SPAN calibration. Wait for the countdown to
complete.
9. If an error code appears, the initial calibration value will be reinstalled.
Refer to Appendix A.
Notes: „ Pressing the ESC button will bypass either the ZERO or SPAN
calibration.
„ When the calibration is complete, the calibration factor
automatically changes to reflect the new calibration. For more on
the calibration factor refer to the CAL.F section in the
Maintenance chapter.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Water-Stop Filter Plugging
When water comes in contact with the water-stop filter (Figure 2), it reduces
or stops flow to the gas sensor. If this occurs, the filter needs to be dried out
or replaced.
Check for a plugged flow by blocking the end of the probe with your thumb.
Listen for a lowering of the pump frequency. If no change in tone occurs,
your filter is probably already plugged. Disconnect the sampling probe from
the instrument. The pump sound should change, increasing in frequency.
Change the filter, setting the plugged filter aside to dry. If filter plugging is
a continuing problem, a TSI Model 801997 Water Trap is recommended.
Changing the Water-Stop Filter

5.
Refer to Figure 2.
Remove the sample tubing from the instrument sample port.
Remove this tubing from the filter and save.
Twist the fitting on the end of the filter counterclockwise to separate the
filter from the fitting. Set the filter aside to dry, or discard if clearly
dirty.
Replace with a new filter. Connect the fitting and replacing the short
tubing.
Cleaning the Sample Probe
Cleaning may be necessary in high-soot environments. Soot accumulates in
the steel sampling tube and sampling line and over time may contribute to a
blocked flow path. It is assumed that an optional water trap is present. The
Water-stop filter supplied standard will not perform in environments where
high levels of particulate material (soot) are present.
1.
Disconnect the sampling probe from the instrument.
2.
Remove the water-stop filter or remove the optional Water Trap (if
installed) by separating the sample tube from the tube stub on each end
of the trap.
3.
Rinse the tubing, allowing the water to drain from the probe end. When
the water is clear, discontinue the rinse. Orient the probe and tubing so
excess water drains from the sample lines.
21
4.
Allow adequate time for the interior of the probe to dry. Replace the
water trap making sure the water trap is oriented properly. The filter
must be toward the instrument.
